Lyrics

Roman script	Bengali script	Translation
Bandhu ámár Bandhu ámár Sonár áloy d́háká Bhorera pákhii Ut́hlo d́ákii Práńer parág mákhá Kisera tare Kisera d́áke Dine ráte khuṋji táke Natun áloy jhalkáni dey Doláy natun pákhá	বন্ধু আমার বন্ধু আমার সোনার আলোয় ঢাকা ভোরের পাখী উঠলো ডাকি প্রাণের পরাগ মাখা কিসের তরে কিসের ডাকে দিনে রাতে খুঁজি তাকে নতুন আলোয় ঝলকানি দেয় দোলায় নতুন পাখা	My abiding friend— My abiding friend— Is enveloped in golden effulgence. The bird at dawn Feels like singing, Smeared with life's pollen. What is the message? Who is calling? Day and night, I seek Him. A new light gleams, And I flap new wings.
